Norm Paget Irresponsible critics are blasted by Evans By ARTHUR EVANS MPP Simcoe Centre Since the beginning of this year much criticism has been focussed on the economic restraints contained in the budgets of Ontario government ministries The intensity and depth of this criticism has been misleading and imprecise For example without much thinking we have accepted the arbstance of these criticisms For the term restraint the critics have invoked the term cutback think this term reflects basic misun derstanding of the impact of government spending on our economy in terms of in flationary pressures limited increase to them is considered cutback recent conversation which had with James Taylor com munity and social services minister reveals the depth of this misunderstanding from cutback protestors The minister said that he would of ten inquire about what in their eyes would be enough to meet their needs Never once have they offered specific and reasonable per centage increase In their eyes no amount of funding would be adequate to satisfy their demands NOTIMMUNE Any reasonable person would have to conclude that cut back protestors regard gover nment as being immune from inflation Secondly they reject the idea that government is in itself an agent of inflation second point of these crrtrcrsms is that the restraint program is bearing down only at community and social ser vices Well in fact all govern ment programs have been looked at pretty closely In my own ministry transportation and communications capital spending on roads will be lower in 197677 than in the previous year The housing ministry budget will be maintained at last years level People services have habit growing leaps and bounds They are laborintensive in ter ms of lot of professionals being hired to improve these services Many times govern ments and professionals get themselves entrapped in measuring the overall quality human service by ratio formula of professionals to patients or children OUT OF PROPORTION Childrens Aid Societies in Ontario dropped by 25 per cent Yet the total profes sional staff caseworkers and their supervisors in creased some 11 per cent While percentages can be questioned the very minimum which can be pointed out is that the ratio of professionals to children is remaining the same if not improving somewhat The cutback critics only accept viewpoints most favorable to themselves They persist in using emotional con frontation rather than examining some basic facts Case in point again is the 55 per Innisï¬l employees honored on By

Gib bons Nelson Browning and Tom Kettingerham Margaret Hindle and John Thies were tops in crokinole cent limit They ignore the average 1975 increase of 229 per cent for Childrens Aid Societies The 55 per cent limit is additional to that 1975 figure Certainly the cut back critics cannot argue that the 1975 increase was not above the rate of inflation These figures are basic facts When you cannot change fact you can ignore it Let us look at some more figures The ministry and its agencies spent about $35 million less in 1975 than was budgeted for That represents about per cent and we have not penalized any agency as we would by applying the 55 per cent limit to their actual spen ding Iast year The ministry has applied this limit to their estimates for providing the same services this year as they didlast year $79 MILLION MORE In fact community and social services will spend $79 million more in the estimates than was budgeted for in 1975 76 So much for all the irrespon sible confusion aroused that your government was aban doning people services or for cing mothers back to work or taken their children from them Those statements are imfounded If it is crime to limit government expen ditures then we should all be championing higher inflation What an absurd and silly position to assume What your government is at tempting to achieve is the more efficient use of public dollars This

service There were even suggestions that the 67yearold armaments specialistwho had once served as deputy premier under for mer leader Nikita Khrushchev might be the designated succes sor to Prime Minister Alexei Kosygin now 72 But Moscowbased foreign analysts of the Kremlin scene now believe Ustinovs election to the top body was probably part of strategy to prepare him to take over the defence ministry They think that the 72year old Grechkoclosely associated with Brezhnevmay have planned to retire within the next few months because of failing health The fact that we earn the minimum wage is
